Abstract
In analyzing data from 212 exclusively homosexual women, 40 of these women were only children. For the present sample of 212 homosexual women, 12 had experienced rape. Eight of these 9 were only children. There is no relationship between being an only child and lesbian psychosexual development.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
